The Los Angeles Lakers lost to the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday night at the STAPLES Center, 119-112. It looked like the game was going to be a blowout for most of the night, but the young Lakers squad never gave up despite facing a deficit as large as 22 points.
The Lakers had their hands full with Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins. They dominated on both ends of the court, putting the Lakers into that big hole. However, they weren’t able to keep the Lakers down the whole night, as they climbed out of that big hole to take the lead for the first time about midway through the fourth quarter.
